Johannes
A. van der Ven. Human rights or religious rules? Brill, 2010. K3240.V46
2010 This
book studies the relationship between religion and human rights and discusses
how they appear to compete with one another. The author explores a
number of questions in this area including how to define religion and study
it, how to understand religion from its relation with human rights in such a
way that justice is done to both religion and human rights, and the impact
religion might have on attitudes towards human rights. |

J. Zedalis. Claims against Iraqi oil and gas : legal considerations and
lessons learned. Cambridge University Press, 2010. KMJ3532.Z43
2010 This
book examines the legal issues surrounding international debt recovery on
claims against Iraqi oil and gas. It offers a snapshot view of Iraq’s
outstanding debt obligations and an analysis of the significance of the
theory of odious debt in the context of the Iraqi situation. The author
also discusses the lessons learned by the handling of the Iraqi debt
experience and the transferability of those lessons to future situations in
which resource-rich nations have financial obligations to other members of
the world community or their nationals. |
